Trend #1: Sleek, Minimalistic & Clean Lines

Modern design trends these days seem to be consistent with simple, clean lines and geometric shapes. When it comes to pools, classic rectangular, square and L-shaped pools are perfect for a modern backyard. These pool offers a beautiful, simplistic look while not being overly eye-catching, allowing them to integrate perfectly with any kind of backyard. If you want to keep things minimalistic or only have a small amount of available space in your backyard, a plunge pool may be ideal for you. Plunge pools are smaller, rectangular or even square pools that are meant for lounging rather than swimming. 

Trend #2: Naturalistic & Resort-Style Pools

The goal with many pools and backyard investments is to create the feeling of a “home away from home.” As a result, many homeowners are choosing to design their backyard pools to feel like a naturalistic, resort-style spa. This can be achieved with a few simple design choices:

• Zero Entry Pool: This is when the entry point for your pool starts at ground level and gradually deepens as you walk into the pool. This mimics the feeling of walking into the water at a beach.
• Stone Surround: To curate that natural feeling, a great design choice is to surround your pool with natural stones. This will make your pool feel more spa-like.
• Water Feature: A water feature is a luxurious pool upgrade that makes you feel like you are on a resort. Aside from adding visual interest, they also create a beautiful, calming sound. 

Trend #3: Smart Pool Technology

One major priority with modern pools is ease of use and overall convenience. This is why many pool owners choose to invest in smart pool technology upgrades. Automatic pool covers help make pool maintenance much easier. Homeowners can easily close off their pool for safety and to minimize mess with the click of a button. Customizable LED lights are also popular. They help light up the area around your pool at night, and you can change the colours to create ambience. These lights are also remote-controlled and are a great addition to any backyard pool that hosts evening swim sessions.
